I have no complaints about fast food. It's mighty convenient while
out shopping to stop and get something at the food court. Some of the
fast food things are quite tasty, I doubt they're all that healthy,
but I'm not looking for health food when I stop at ________________
(fill in the blank), I'm looking for something to take the edge off my
hunger and stop my stomach from growling.
